• In a large pot or dutch oven with the butter & flour over medium heat make a medium brown roux.
• Add the onions, celery, bell pepper, bay leaves, salt, and cayenne & white peppers. Cook, stirring over medium high heat until onions, bell peppers & celery are soft, about 7 to 8 minutes.
• Add the garlic & thyme and stir well for about a minute or so.
• Add about 3/4 of the water and sherry & stir well.
• When the mixture comes to a boil add the rest of the water if needed. You want mixture to nearly coat a spoon.

DAVID'S LOUISIANA SHRIMP/CRAWFISH ETOUFFEE

Steps:

• 1. Finish making your blonde roux (pictured) but no darker than this. Once you add the aromatics it will stop the roux from changing color further.
• 2. While roux is still hot and on med-high heat add all of the Holy Trinity (onions, celery, bell pepper) and garlic. Continue to cook until onions, celery and bell peppers are tender. It helps to sweat the aromatics if you sprinkle a few pinches of salt over the top of this before mixing it with a heavy wooden spoon.
• 3. Everything is now tender add 2 cups of stock and stir until smooth, then add two more cups of stock and bay leaves and stir until blended
• 4. Continue at a simmer for about minimum 30-45 minutes before adding your shrimp or crawfish. Cook another 10-15 minutes, now it's ready to serve.
• 5. Finished and ready to serve. You can either serve over rice, pasta of any shape even mashed potatoes. I like to either pour over rice or put a cup of rice on top in the center and garnish with fresh chopped parsley or chopped green onions Serve with fresh or hot french bread

CAJUN CRAWFISH AND SHRIMP ÉTOUFFéE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat. Gradually stir in flour, and stir constantly until the mixture turns 'peanut butter' brown or darker, at least 15 or 20 minutes. I use a large fork with the flat side to the bottom of the pan in a side to side motion. This is your base sauce or 'roux'. It is very important to stir this constantly. If by chance the roux burns, discard and start over.
• Once the roux is browned, add the onions, garlic, celery and bell pepper to the skillet, and saute for about 5 minutes to soften. Stir in the chopped tomatoes and fish stock, and season with the seafood seasoning. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Season the sauce with hot pepper sauce and cayenne pepper (if using), and add the crawfish and shrimp. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until the shrimp are opaque.
